Crime relating to the abuse of addictive substances
Hermanovský, Lukáš ; Jelínek, Jiří (advisor) ; Vanduchová, Marie (referee)
The subject of this thesis is one of the most serious problems of modern civilizations which is drug and drug abuse. This problem bears international character and therefore needs to be solved on international basis and with cooperation between all sates and nations involved. Big role concerning this problem play international organizations and treaties, especially OSN and its documents (these are described in chapter 5.). International cooperation is then reflected in particular legal systems of individual states (our legal regulations, the core of which lays in statute no. 40/2009, the penal code and in some other statutes, are described in chapter 6.). Basic principles as well as some detailed technical matters (for example lists of drugs and addictive substances) are, thanks to global unifying tendencies, common to large number of states. Details of legal regulations is, however, up to particular states, which also take into account their traditions and legal historical aspects, when proposing new provision or statute (chapter 2. contains historical aspects of Czech drug scene development). Particular legal regulations are therefore less or more different in different states (comparison between Czech and Slovak legal regulations regarding addictive substances abuse is in chapter 7.). Important part in...

PÁNKOVÁ, Jana
There was news in Medias during methanol cause that the reason of the instant crises of poisoning with methyl alcohol could be insufficient check activity of authorities for protection of health of inhabitants (next APHI only). The target of my bachelor work is to judge if the authorities for protection of public health (next PPH only) are able to provide sufficient steps in cases of health hazard or damage because of consummation of methyl alcohol. The main attention is given to activity of Stations Regional Hygiene in Zlín region (next SRH ZR only) with the seat in Zlín during solving of the methanol cause in Zlín region. In theoretical part I mention general and special cognisance about methanol, basic information about types of spirits and classification of their safeness. I described forms of intoxications and cure possibilities. I also pay my attention to occurrence of poisonings from methanol in the world during last few years and present circumstances of intoxicate cases in Zlín region. In practical part I arrange chronologically and characterized particular emergency measures proclaimed by the Minister of Health during solving of methanol cause. I describe the results of the first and second period of checking ACTION 735 which was led by Board of customs of CR and aimed for checking of spirits, tuzemak and consumption spirit. Next I mention the way of security inquiry of civil instigations. It was done from December 5 to 28, 2012. Particular people could deliver a sample of alcohol with obscure origin to SRH ZR for testing which was free of charge. It was followed with processing intoxications during the extraordinary event in Zlín region. Classification method of investigative question is descriptive analysis of cases of poisoning from methyl alcohol, the number of checking provided by SRH ZR and other supervisory organs, description of ascertained defects and specified sanctions. I use charts, column, doughnut and cobweb graphs for illustration. We can see from the results that during the extraordinary event there were 21 people intoxicated with methyl alcohol in ZR during which time there were 17 patients admitted to hospital and 4 people were found dead in their place of residence. There were heavy persistent effects evidenced at one patient after release from hospital. The class of age 60 - 69 was dominated among poisoned people. In the period of time from September 1, 2012 to January 24, 2013 SRH ZR provided 1156 checks focused on abidance of proclaimed emergency measures. In terms of cooperation with other supervisory organs they provided 19 corporate checks. They found some troubles in 27 places of business - 13 × breaking of emergency measures, 3 × missing of proof of acquisition, 5 x unsatisfactory results of laboratory investigations, 6 × violation of watched the origin of alcohol and dupery of customers. They awarded 34 fines in an amount CZK 386,000.00. At the end of this work I sum up facts of methanol cause and supposed range of possible victims. I evaluate the activity of SRH, interdepartmental work group and other involved organs. On the base of extraordinary event they agreed the new law n. 309/2013 Digest about trading and the new law n. 307/2013 Digest about obligatory marking of spirit. These laws could precede occurrence of similar event. They also set regular checking focused on adulterate alcohol. At the close in connection with order of reports about numbers of intoxicate people during solving the extraordinary event I suggest some steps which could contribute to improvement of APHI activities in similar cases in future.

Interruption problems in the view of student of the secondeay schools for healt workers.
ŠÍMOVÁ, Michaela
The dispute over interruption is one of the most intensive and most controversial political and ethical discussions in today{\crq}s modern civilization. It includes a great number of opposed, controversial opinions and attitudes both in the sphere of medicine and on the political or ethical ground. I have selected the topic of this work on the base of personal interest in the issue of termination of pregnancy, because this issue bears the basic questions and attitudes of man to the existence of the individual. Today the issue of interruption is sharply polarized into two controversial rivalling groups, i.e. the ``pro-life{\crqq} movement and the ``pro-choice{\crqq} movement. The dispute over termination of pregnancy has been becoming more and more topical issue not only in the Czech Republic but also in the world. The aim of this work was to map the attitudes of students not only of graduation classes of selected sanitary secondary schools to the issue of interruption and to compare the mapped attitudes of students of the Faculty of Health and Social Studies and of the Theological Faculty of the University of South Bohemia with the attitudes of respondents of graduation classes of the selected sanitary secondary schools to the issue of interruption. On the base of this aim, two hypotheses were stated in the research part of the work. After that, the questionnaire investigation was performed, for which a structured questionnaire had been elaborated. The questionnaire was filled out by fifty respondents of the Faculty of Health and Social Studies and fifty respondents of the theological Faculty of the University of South Bohemia of České Budějovice. On the base of that investigation, one of the hypotheses was not confirmed. Available literature and current Internet sources were used for the theoretical and for the practical part of the work. The work should serve primarily to the students themselves and to other readers as a modest data source for this extensive issue, and the research part of this work could be used as a small summary both for laymen and for professionals teaching at universities and high schools, so that they have the possibility to look at the issue of interruption from the point of view of the students, future professionals and workers of different areas.

Bejas - history, society and culture
Záhořík, Jan ; Kumsa, Alemayehu (advisor) ; Kropáček, Luboš (referee)
A history of the Beja tribes goes back to the antiquity. The Beja nation represents o ne of the oldest known African nations. Exploring foreign countries and nations, was mainly for Greek historians, connected with several problems. Strange civilizations were described in more or less unreal colours, as for example headless or without other parts of the body. The change in viewing "the others" came in the Middle Ages thanks to Arab scholars to whom we are obliged for their valuable information about the Beja tribes. Unfortunately, we do not have a rich information base from the ancient times. We can get some information from the rock inscriptions, but there are only few relevant sources describing the Beja tribes. Especially Cerman speaking travelers and scholars of the 19th century play an important role in learning about the Beja. Their records can help us to look at their history and to know a bit from their everyday life. From the 20th century we have a lack of records and direct resources. That is the reason why reconstruction of the modern Beja history can be difficult. ft is surely interesting to consider how the view of the Beja was changing throughout the times. First of all, they were seen as the "wild ones, " dangerous nomad nation which is an enemy oj all its neighbours. Then, especially in the...

Geopolitical affiliation of Russia in contemporary Russian discourse
Kalinová, Olga ; Voráček, Emil (advisor) ; Dubský, Zbyněk (referee)
The question of Russia's geopolitical affiliation has been a cause of centuries long debate, whether Russia belongs to Europe or to Asia. From the geographical point of view, Russia is predominantly situated in Asia. From cultural and civilisational points of view, Russian people tend to lean towards Europe, even though they capture elements of both civilizations. By examination of the most prominent Russian schools of thought, mainly of geopolitical nature (Slavophilism, Westernism, Atlantisms, Eurasianism, etc.) the work seeks to systemize the answers to this question. At the same time, it seeks to determine through analysis of the contemporary Russian foreign policy, which of these ideological leanings plays a dominant role in foreign policy discourse in Russia since 2000. Thanks to identification of this priority direction and by determining the primary orientation of Russian foreign policy in a particular region, the aim of this work is finally to answer the following question: What is Russia: Europe, Asia, or a separate continent of Eurasia?

Treatment of personal status in jurisdictions of selected Arab states
Kopecký, Robert ; Kropáček, Luboš (advisor) ; Veselý, Rudolf (referee) ; Pauknerová, Monika (referee)
In my dissertation thesis I tried to explicate the fundamental institutes of Islamic family law, according to modern and contemporary legislation in a number of Arab states. The family law is fairly exhaustively treated in the sacred book of Muslims, in Koran, albeit in a number of scattered passages, mostly in suras from Medinese period. These passages are defined with more precision by the prestigeous method of the interpretation of Koran, with so called taj<;ir and thanks to collected statements of the Prophet Muhammad and his companions, constituting the tradition, so called swma. And the modern and contemporary legislation is based rigid on it with some westernized elements. After a brief acquaintance comprehension of the personal statute in contemporary Near Eastern countries is described in detail. The next chapter contains the description of the sense of marriage in Islamic law in three aspects- legal, social and religious. It is a contract of civil law concluded by the bridegroom with the legal guardian of the bride, so called wali.After this I continue through the short characterization of conditions of the conclusion of the marriage, for example form and capacity, limitations to marry any person of the opposite sex, special time period cidda ... The following part of thesis describes dissolution...

"In Oil We Trust?" US Policy in Persian Gulf after the Cold War
Kašík, Jakub ; Nálevka, Vladimír (advisor) ; Horák, Slavomír (referee)
6. Resumé (Shrnutí práce v anglickém jazyce) The end of the eighties was not just a change in the time but it happened to be one of the biggest historical changes in the twentieth century. Two camps that stood against each other in ideological as well as realistic animosity were enemies no more. The Cold War ended. American scholars became to question new world? Two main visions were represented by the theories of Fukuyama and Huntington. The first came with the thesis that the end of Cold war was not just the end of more than 40 years long struggle but that it was the confirmation of the superiority of the United States and the ideas that it was based on. Liberal democracy was said to be the final stage of human struggle to find the ideal way of statehood. The second theory came with totally opposite idea that considered the new world unleashed from the bounds of Cold war as full of geopolitical vacuum that will turn into more clashes between cultures and civilizations. The euphoria of those days appreciated the first theory but was afraid that the second one is closer to the truth. The main question was: how will the new world look like? United States were considered to be the winners but the main task was to find their role in the new world. The new administration of George H. W. Bush even though shocked...
